This week, we’ll show you how you can make a dedicated portable device that will pull and display tweets from your favourite account in real time, wherever you are. Reminiscent of the pagers we used in days gone by, the device will have a compact LCD screen that will display the most recent tweet from a specific user, as retrieved by an on-board Arduino MKR 1010 over Wi-Fi.
This versatile setup can easily be modified for any other social media platform or website with an RSS feed with just a few lines of code - for example: get the latest Bitcoin/stock price or news headline on a topic on the go.
